Are Berninas M&M's... in disguise?
Monday, August 15, 2011 at 10:21AM And you simply can’t stop at one? LOL! That’s what someone posted this morning in one of the Bernina groups I belong to, and it just tickled me to death because at last, I have an excuse Jim will understand!
I nearly added another one myself last week, there was a Virtuosa 150 on EBay that I almost won the bidding on, but sense prevailed before I spent more than it was worth… amazing.
The dogs have been sick again, there’s been little sleep for either of us this past week, Jim and I have been taking turns trying to sleep on the sofa, so we can let the dogs out all night long. They are better this morning, but I rather feel like death warmed over myself!
;)
So today, I’m going to treat myself to a day at the computer, playing with my Bernina Cutwork software. I picked up some construction paper and have been cutting out all my AccuQuilt appliqué shapes, and scanning them into the software. I have a little test wall-hanging I’m making out of some Moda Chocolat scraps I found in my stash… I have been working on getting all my fabric in one location, so it’s easier to find and coordinate fabrics. I came across a huge pile of charm squares from the Chocolat line… mostly my “rejects”… the plaids and stripes. Time to start using them up!
Before I forget, those of you that mailed checks directly to me for the raffle quilt, I have your ticket stubs in envelopes ready to be mailed out, I just haven’t made it to the post office yet. It is on my to do list for tomorrow! Thank you so much!
I appreciate all the suggestions for using up my old sheets. I think I’m going to save them for making muslins for shirts… I need lots of practice and I like that idea.

The answer to the title of this post is YES!!!!!!!!
I adore the wall hanging. I'd love a set of them - for placemats!
It will be fun to see what you create with the Bernina cutwork software. Please keep us posted on those project with some photos.
